I will put the ppcarm file into a new tar file and upload this to my website as the seed compiler. Then I will modify my install script to get this tar file rather than the one it now gets (2.6.4 from SF). And I will NOT put it into /usr/bin but keep it somewhere in the home dir tree. What I also need to do is to create a fpc.cfg file and put that in a proper location. In the setup.sh file in the download I found this command: # Create the cfg file $FPCDIR/bin/fpcmkcfg -d basepath=$FPCDIR/lib/fpc/\$FPCVERSION -o $FPCDIR/bin/fpc.cfg I should be able to use something similar provided I also add fpcmkcfg into the tar file, right? Seems like it deposits the fpc.cfg file in the same dir as ppcarm. Will such a file override any same name file located on path? Note that my install script is made to assume nothing about the target RPi system, so it must contain everything needed. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
